Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension withdraws from ICE shooting investigation, says FBI blocked access to evidence The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) – the state’s top investigative agency – announced today that it would be withdrawing from the investigation into the fatal shooting of a 37-year-old woman in Minneapolis by a federal immigration agent.
In a statement, BCA superintendent Drew Evans said the investigation would now be “solely led FBI”, noting that that federal authorities have blocked BCA from accessing “case materials, scene evidence or investigative interviews necessary to complete a thorough and independent investigation”.
Evans added that without “complete access to the evidence” BCA would have to “reluctantly” withdraw from the ongoing investigation.
These fucks don’t care about being right. They have an agenda and narrative to push and will steamroll anyone who gets in their way.
While I applaud people for protesting the injustices, I fear we’re long past the point that protests will bring any constructive change.
